Hi,
I installed the xubuntu 8.10 beta (or was it RC, not 100% sure) and had trouble getting 256 colors working in my terminal so I installed ncurses-term, however it still didn't work. So I noticed that bash was whining about a missing or incorrect rgb.txt. So I located rgb.txt and found out it was empty. So I fixed it manually by finding a replacement for it online. However I recently upgraded some packages and then rgb.txt was empty again. Any ideas what's wrong? I noticed other people had similar problems back in 2005 and 2006. But the packages recommended to install in those cases have been replaced by others now and installing them doesn't do anything.
